"It seems that I've been living two
lifes.
One life, I am an IT consultant
for a respectable software
company.
I have a social security number,
pay my taxes and I ...

The other life is lived in my

alias Chuck Ian Gordon trying to
help mankind qualify for the 22nd
century. "

Volumetric video:
a) will allow us to create phantastic immersive scenes.
b) will allow bad actors to play like gods.
Blockbuster-recipe: record 8 hours of action, get the 1 great minute out of
it. blend the 3d movements - if necessary blend with other mocap the actor

you have a blockbuster!
c) AI will help us achieving perfect stuntman-injected-volumetric acting in
real time.*
